1. BASIC PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY
– 12 –
■
Do not try to get on or off a moving machine
• Get on or off the machine after making sure it has come to a complete stop and the parking
brake is applied.
■
Do not let anyone enter the work area
• There is the danger of being run over causing serious injuries or death.
• If the driver does not have a clear field of vision, assign a conductor to help.
■
To go uphill or downhill, run at a low speed. Do not
attempt to shift speeds while traveling on a slope
• Shifting speeds on a slope can cause unexpected
running down the slope.
• Going down hill at speeds other than low range can
cause the machine to run down violently.
■
Refrain from inattentive driving
• Inattentive driving or driving relying on guess work can cause an accident. Use extreme
care for workers present in the path of the roller or around it. In case of danger, stop and
sound the horn, and proceed when the area is clear of personnel or obstructions.
■
When changing the direction of travel, secure the safety on the path in the travel
direction
■
Keep everyone away from the pinch points
• When making turns, do not allow anyone to come close
to the pinch point.
WARNING: Negligence of these instructions can lead to accidents.
